Hi, I’m Marie Dabbs from The Inspiration Vault. I’m lucky enough to call Pam my friend and I’m thrilled to be writing a guest post for her and P.S. I Love You Crafts.
We’ve often discussed how much we both love nautical crafts, so I knew I had to make this Nautical Cricut Scrapbook Layout for her. Now Pam has another layout to add to her Beach Scrapbook Layouts.
I’m a huge fan of Target’s dollar area at the front of their stores, and last month I found some very cute nautical-themed craft supplies. I’ll be using some of those for this layout.
When I think nautical, I think anchors, flags, rope, and compasses. For the compass, I used my Cricut Edge to Edge cartridge. I love that you can adjust the sizes of all of the images to suit your needs. I also used the Create a Friend cartridge to make the “AHOY” cut, but you could always make one yourself in Design Space.

Materials Needed for Nautical Cricut Page
- Teal Cardstock (2)
- Navy Cardstock (1)

- Edge to Edge Cricut Cartridge
- Create a Friend Cricut Cartridge
- Nautical Embellishments – I used anchors and jute.
- Washi Tape in Coordinating Colors
- Jute Cord
- Scissors
- Paper Trimmer

Paper Sizes for this Layout
- Background: 2, 12×12 Teal Cardstock
- Photo Mats: 2, 4.5×6.5 and 2, 3.5×4.5 Pink Paper
Sizes for Cricut Die Cuts
- Compass (Image 25): 11 inches H on Navy Cardstock
- Ahoy (Image F5+29): 2.5 inches H on Pink Paper

Instructions to Assemble
- Cut the compass die cut in half vertically. Attach it to the teal pages with the straight edges in the center.
- Cut six, 8-inch pieces of jute cord.
- Fold 2-inch pieces of the washi tape in half over an 8-inch piece of jute cord. Clip them with scissors so they have a ribbon bottom.
- Attach the other nautical embellishments to an 8-inch piece of jute cord.
- Attach both jute cord pieces to the top outside corners of each page. I put the washi flag on the left.
- Attach the other four pieces of jute cord to the outside bottom corners in loops or knots.
- Adhere the 2-inch white circle behind the lifesaver in AHOY.
- Attach the AHOY cut to the left side below the washi flags.
- Adhere the pink photo mats as shown, two on each page.

Hi, I’m Marie. I have had a passion for crafts my whole life. Over the years and after three kids involved in Scouts and other activities, I discovered my other passion, event planning. I love making my own decorations and styling rooms for parties. I’m at my happiest when I can combine crafts and party styling. It’s so much fun!
I love the pink added into the color palette. It really softens the colors of the traditional nautical color scheme.
I know! Marie did a super job with this layout. I never would have thought to put pink with the other colors, but it really works.
Love the nautical. We just made an awesome star chart for a room we are redoing and bought some porthole mirrors for a bath. Great ideas. Love your site!
That sounds like a really cool project. I love nautical themed things.
Oh that is a really fun scrapbook page. Amazing that you made it all with the Cricut!
Marie did an awesome job on this layout. Thanks for stopping by!
This is so cute! I like searching the dollar section at Target too for diy supplies.
Target is so addicting! Thanks for looking, Lisa.
I grew up on the Great Lakes. Nautical design always reminds me of home.
I’m on the Chesapeake Bay, so everything nautical is popular here too. Thanks for stopping by!
